That's a great article, just the facts as known and none of the usual "terrified passengers" or "emergency landing" nonsense that you normally find in newspapers these days. Excellent work Pat Flynn of the Clare Herald.

Pat writes all the aviation articles for that paper.

Totally agree, well written article. The Gulfstream is permitted to land overweight and might even be fitted with a G meter, so the decision by the crew to burn off fuel to max landing weight shows how insignificant the issue was.

Yes it's a civilian charter plane operating for the US military (N846AX departed as Camber 551)

ZF973 Boeing 763 from Moscow VKO to La Romana LRM is holding NE of Shannon, approach path doesn't look planned. These have stopped recently in Shannon for fuel so it could be down to refuelling.

Seems to be heading to Shannon now after an hour of holding. I'm wondering if they've a tech issue?

N141PR, a BT67(DC-3) just south of KEF en route to DUB. should be in about 11am.

Dublin Airport have a couple of photos and videos of the DC3 on their Instagram story now - https://instagram.com/dublinairport?utm_source=ig_profile_share&igshid=1zxdsq461g87

In the Tabnabs photo she is listed as a Basler BT-67, not a DC3????

However in the FAA register she is listed as a 1942 manufactured DC3 with Pratt & Whitey engines type PT6A-67R, airworthiness in Sept 2018, certified in October'18.

FR hasn't updated. This flight now goes KWI (Kuwait) JFK direct since last week. Prior to then, it did a tech stop at SNN.

Anybody know what flew low just north of Shannon just now? Looked like an a340, training? Not showing on fr.
